If you want me to be blunt, I think he is incapable of it, and he is wasting all of our time with a "what if" post about a language that will never exist. Happy now?

I'm suggesting the combination of possible health problems combined with a pattern of trying to reinvent everything. I'm familiar with this pattern myself. I'm suggesting not to go…

Going to try to address the whole problem here, not just the trying to invent a new language: from: http://fendrich.se/blog/2013/01/24/pre-programming-mental-si... > I am, in fact,…

I'm glad Linus and many others are reviewing Kernel changes still, but how long will it be before there is nothing stopping massive corporations from deciding what can be changed? …

I would have shared this post with others, but the first graph is serioualy racist-looking. Regardless of how accurate it is, there is no reason to show faces with the names that s…

Must be Russian! :) Not because they were poor planning- they just didn't want to waste vodka on mix.

If Tim reads this: Tim, you didn't fail. The industry has failed. For the past few-to-several years, books on technology have been obsolete by the time they are written- not just p…

Great post. Appreciate all of the details of how to leave Google vs just a rant.

Competition has always been a problem. But the answer to that problem was people buying records of music that they liked. No videos. Stop fooling yourselves. Piracy did seriously w…

We had this back in the 80's. It was called just calling someone with your phone. Because there was no caller id. I remember when a group of girls called me, not saying who they we…

Now people won't have to text to talk to someone a few feet away.

There should be the equivalent of wikileaks for scientific papers- a site where you can anonymously post them and their abstract. While I understand someone has to pay for hosting,…

Some security solutions actually rely on doing MITM to read secure packets to identify malware, etc. Really stupid.

A significant part of U.S. government uses FreeBSD (or derivation) - and they have laptops.

Curious as to what the "new hotness" is for development. What laptop/computer do you have and love/want to have, which OS, and which IDE/text editor?

I hope this is continued. I would have loved to have been a student in Feynman's physics classes. Unfortunately, I did not realize this until I had already taken a different path a…
